Chapter 418 Night talk, game

It is too cold in winter, with snow and ice, and there are few recreational activities that can be carried out outdoors.After dinner, Fourteen and Zuo Qiuyue went back to their room.

Qi Xian held back for a day, and finally asked, "Master, do I not need to be punished?"

Seeing his stupid look, Shisi was almost amused: this idiot, she has been in love all day and still hasn't understood what she is going to do.

"Did Tong Yang tell you?"

"Huh?" Qi Xian was puzzled, "Tong Yang?"

"Do you know? Master told you?"

Now, Kong Simu couldn't help lowering his head, and raised his hand to cover up his smile.

"What are you laughing at? It feels like laughing at a fool." Qi looked at this first and then that, feeling unhappy.

"Aren't you just a fool?" Tong Yang said.

"Tong Yang is right." Fourteen continued, "You have been practicing in Shendu for so many years, but you still haven't changed at all. Now I have to think about whether I can safely hand over the branch office to you. "

Zuo Qiuyue understood more and more why Shisi was so kind to this apprentice, he was simply a living treasure.

Clever when it should be clever, stupid when it should be stupid, and naturally likable.

"You have made meritorious service today." Tong Yang deliberately did not explain to him, but wanted him to experience the feeling of uneasiness more so that he could have a long memory.

"Great work? What kind of meritorious service?"

"Cai Qinhu."

Qi Xian is not unintelligent, but pure in heart. Although he has experienced many things in recent years, this purity has not been lost.Once he came to a safe environment, when he felt that he didn't need to be on guard all the time, fighting his mind, and playing tricks, he turned back to a pure-hearted boy.

After Tong Yang pointed out and gave him some time, he quickly straightened out the tricks.

"Oh, so that's the case." He suddenly realized.

"Master, you and the prince brought us here to..." He changed a suitable word, "Are you inspecting the people's situation?"

"He came to seize power."

Fourteen's not covering up made Qi Xian's eyes widen.

Seize power from Jiedushi.

Stimulate!

"One mountain cannot contain two tigers, and Henan Province can only have one boss." Fourteen said, "Originally we were worried that we would not have the opportunity to make a breakthrough, but today you recruited Cai Qinhu, which is considered a meritorious service."

"Hey, so I am a lucky star."

"Yes, stupid people have stupid blessings."

"Then Master, how are you going to arrange Tong Yang?" Qi Xian took the opportunity to ask.

"Arranging for him to march." Fourteen said that he came here to seize power, mainly military power.

Jiedu envoys are in charge of local military and political power, and Meng Changhuai has done a very good job in political affairs.So Fourteen and Zuo Qiuyue didn't intend to touch him for a series of administrative rights.Anyone who does these things is the same, as long as it can ensure the safety of the people in Henan Province.

But the management rights of the one hundred thousand soldiers and horses have to be transferred to his own hands little by little.

"But can Mr. Meng agree?" Qi Xian felt that this was not easy to do. Seizing power is tantamount to picking meat from a tiger's mouth. No one should be willing to let someone take it away.

"Whether you agree or not, we will take it away." Fourteen said, "It depends on how he handles Cai Qinhu this time."

"But Cai Qinhu didn't murder and set fire, and he didn't collude with the enemy and treason. He just molested a woman from an ordinary family. Although the truth is not good, he did not commit any unforgivable crime."

What Kang Simu said was the truth, such a small flaw, if Fourteen and Zuo Qiuyue hadn't happened to meet him and intentionally troubled him, it would not be a fault to Cai Qinhu at all.

"It depends on Master Meng's attitude." Zuo Qiuyue, who had been silent all this time, said.

"My lord, my concubine." At this moment Xiao Wu came in from the outside.

"what's up?"

"It was just given to me by Lady Li's maid who called her servant over." Xiao Wu directly opened a purse made of silk and satin, and handed it to Fourteen with both hands.

A few other people also raised their heads to look, only to see that there were a lot of gold leaves inside.

Hehe, the shot is quite generous.

"Li Yuan's maid?" Fourteen asked, "Why did I give you these?"

"She asked her subordinates about Second Brother Lin, and asked about Second Brother Lin's recent situation."

"What does she want?" Qi Xian didn't forget how Li Ji humiliated Lin Er back then, with a very bad tone.

"What did you say?" Fourteen continued to ask Xiao Wu.

"This subordinate told the truth." Xiao Wu, who had done his homework before coming here, took the initiative to explain without waiting for Fourteen Questions, "My subordinate also asked someone to inquire, and said that Mrs. Li reconciled with her husband's family not long ago. "

No wonder I can see her here.

"Yes, I see." Fourteen tied up the purse and threw it back to Xiao Wu, "It's yours."

"Thank you princess for the reward!"

"Princess, do you want your subordinates to continue to inquire?"

"No need, pay attention to something, don't pay attention to nothing."

"Yes, my subordinate understands."

"Is she reconciled with others and wants to marry Lin Er?" Qi Xian felt sorry for Lin Er, "Does her brother with eyes on the top of his head know what his sister is doing?"

"It's not about marrying you, what are you in a hurry for?" Fourteen said, "And what happened back then wasn't Li Yuan's fault, it's just that the two of them have no fate."

When the marriage was annulled, Li Yuan should be no less sad than Lin Er.

But the two are destined to be different, even if Lin Er doesn't have Ma Decao now, it's impossible to be with her.

After talking about the business, Qi Xian, Tong Yang and Kang Simu went back separately.

Fourteen sat with Zuo Qiuyue for a while, and finally Meng Changhuai came.

It was already late at night, and Meng Changhuai walked all the way outside, covered in cold air all over his body.He left all his entourage and staff outside, and came in alone to see Fourteen and Zuo Qiuyue.

The three of them chatted until it was getting brighter, and Meng Changhuai walked out of the guest room.

Several staff members and attendants were invited by Xiao Wu and others to drink tea in the side room next to them. After noticing the movement outside, they rushed out to greet them.

"grown ups."

"Let's go."

……

"Henan Road has [-] troops, divided into five camps, east, west, north, south." Slowly sort the chess pieces on the chessboard back to the chess set.

This game of chess was used by them to pass the time when they waited for Meng Changhuai to come over last night. Fourteen had never learned it before, so Zuo Qiuyue taught her how to play while playing.

"The commander-in-chief of the Zhongda Battalion is Cai Ting, and the 2 people are the most well-equipped. The four battalions in the east, west, north, and south are respectively led by Zhong Yanqing, Xie Sheng, Cai Pang, and Cai Qinhu. Cai Qinhu should have been promoted in the past two months. of."

"Among them, Cai Ting is the patriarch of the Cai family in Huazhou. Cai Pang can tell from the name that he is his cousin with Cai Ting's family, and Cai Qinhu is Cai Ting's son. The Cai family supports and attaches to Meng Changhuai, and is loyal to him. Needless to say."

"The Zhong family from which Zhong Yanqing was born is the most prominent family in Huazhou after the Cai family." Zuo Qiuyue continued, "The Zhong family is related by marriage to Yang Wuji, the former Jiedu envoy and the current minister of the Ministry of War. When he was Dushi, his second son married a daughter from the Zhong family."

"You did a special investigation?" Fourteen was a little surprised.

"Check some before you come."

"Then tell me, I'll listen."

"This is Zhong Yanqing. The last one, Xie Sheng, got the current position of chief soldier by virtue of his military merits." Zuo Qiuyue continued, "He is a native of Huazhou. Military achievements, all the way up from the bottom of the pawn. In the first year of Yuanheng, he was transferred to Huazhou and served under Meng Changhuai."

All in all, of the five battalions now, three of them are headed by Meng Changhuai's confidantes.And the other two, he didn't have as much control over them.

And last night, during the negotiations, Meng Changhuai took the initiative to resign from Cai Qinhu's position as commander-in-chief, which was regarded as a sincerity to Zuo Qiuyue and Shisi.

But when Fourteen recommended Tong Yang to him, he placed him in Xie Sheng's Xi Daying.There was no mention of the new arrangements for Beidaying.

Those who are able to achieve Meng Changhuai's position are all old foxes.

Judging from Xie Sheng's experience, he would never like a paratrooper like Tong Yang, at least not in the early stage.

"Tong Yang will suffer for a while."

"The person you value will definitely not let you down." Zuo Qiuyue came over to hold her, "Go wash up."

The two went to the clean room together.

"One Tong Yang is far from enough, and I need to let a few more people in later." Shisi relaxed and started yawning, "I'll think about it when I go back, how to arrange it."

"My counselor has worked so hard. Wen Neng can put his pen to the world, and Wu Ke can set the world on horseback. Zuoqiu Yue is really lucky to find such an all-rounder. I am very grateful."
